XCOM 2 will not only have you commandeering a squad of soldiers on the battlefield, but also deciding what a base becomes. You get to choose what technologies are researched, what items are built, and which facilities will make up the core of your base. Engineers are who will excavate for open rooms and build up whatever facility you deem, so check out our guide on how to get more of them if you need some. Besides them, you will also need supplies which you can use this guide to get more of those.

You can trigger the build menu for your base by hovering over the Engineering tab and clicking Build Facilities. From this window you can then choose different rooms to either excavate, build, or upgrade.

Let’s take a look at each facility and their use.
